Severe dysphagia caused by vagus nerve herpetic neuropathy: a case report

, 2021
In this study, we report a rare case of herpetic infection of the larynx with vagus nerve palsy. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella zoster virus (VZV) are among the most common viral causes of vagus nerve (VN) dysfunction. The clinical presentation

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation: retrospective assessment of cardiac safety in a pilot study. [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Vagus nerve stimulation has been successfully used as a treatment strategy for epilepsy and affective disorders for years. Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) is a new non-invasive method to stimulate the vagus nerve, which has been

Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Refractory Epilepsy: Effects on Pro- and Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines in Peripheral Blood [PDF]

, 2010
Objective: The vagus nerve has important immunological functions that may be relevant for its anticonvulsive action. We postulate that this anticonvulsive action is activated by a shift in the immune system resulting in a reduction of neurotoxic and an ...

Vagus nerve stimulation: a pre-hospital case report [PDF]

, 2020
Introduction: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an adjunct therapy to anti-epileptics in patients where combination drug therapy alone has failed. The VNS device resembles an implantable defibrillator, and can be found underneath the clavicle on either ...

Cardiac vagal afferent neurotransmission in health and disease: review and knowledge gaps

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
The meticulous control of cardiac sympathetic and parasympathetic tone regulates all facets of cardiac function. This precise calibration of cardiac efferent innervation is dependent on sensory information that is relayed from the heart to the central ...

INTRANSITIVITY AND VAGUENESS [PDF]

The Review of Symbolic Logic, 2008
There are many examples in the literature that suggest that indistinguishability is intransitive, despite the fact that the indistinguishability relation is typically taken to be an equivalence relation (and thus transitive). It is shown that if the uncertainty perception and the question of when an agentreportsthat two things are indistinguishable are

What Happens in (the) Vagus, Stays in (the) Vagus

The Heart Surgery Forum, 2020
Many cardiothoracic operations put the nerves of the thorax at risk. In fact, nerve injuries are one of the most common reasons cited in malpractice cases brought against cardiothoracic surgeons. While all physicians learn about the nerves of the thorax during anatomy courses in medical school, little is written about avoiding injury to these important
